Candice Swanepoel to Wear the 2013 Victoria’s Secret Fantasy Bra

It was announced yesterday that South African beauty Candice Swanepoel would be wearing the coveted Victoria’s Secret Fantasy Bra in this year’s fashion show airing Dec 10th. Following in the footsteps of Alessandra Ambrosio, Miranda Kerr, Heidi Klum, Gisele Bundchen and others, Ms. Swanepoel gets to debut the “Royal Fantasy Bra,” which is worth, ya know, only $10 million.

Not only does Candice have the honor of wearing this year’s Fantasy Bra, but it’s the most expensive one to date. More than 4,200 precious stones including rubies, diamonds and yellow sapphires are hand-set in 18-karat gold. Candice says of the bra, “I’ve never worn anything this pricey, and we have to put gloves on when we put it on. It’s kind of a big ordeal. The bra comes with two bodyguards and we have to handle it with a lot of care!” She also says they had to mold her body to make the bra to fit her perfectly.

Here’s a picture of Alessandra wearing the $2.5 million floral-themed Fantasy Bra:
